One of my partners tried to claim him at Laurel when he was going in for $5k. He was going to just put the money up then retire the horse. He had our trainer call and ask about just selling him since he was gonna take him anyway. The jocks agent told the trainer that it wasn't the first call he had gotten like this. Suddenly, the assbag Cole scratches him and runs him back for $15k instead. He finished 3rd. My partner wasn't about to spend $15k to retire the horse, especially since Cole would have gotten the money. This horse deserves better, but more importantly, Cole should be embarassed.
